Any recommended travel pillow to use in a car seat on a plane? I've never needed one before, just made sure DS's head was leaning against the carseat, but we have a 13 hour flight. ANYthing that will make him more comfortable is worth it.

Thanks.

Oh, DS is 3 yo and seat is Safety First Uptown.

ETA I thought I could buy a kids u-shaped pillow. I could use it under his chin to prop his head up or on the side. I think he would like the dragon.

Boy, we're going to have so much stuff on this flight. Sigh. that's what you get for flying 13 hours!

maybe the pillow they give you on the plane? Or a rolled blanket? i cant think of anything specific, and it seems like an added pain to bring a pillow on top of everything else. maybe a stuffed animal he likes?

Piper's always used the blanket and pillow from the plane. They're the perfect size for her.

I've used a small air pillow and put a cloth over it like a spare shirt. That way it's deflatable when you don't want it around or if you want more/less padding. :shrug-shoulders:

I also take small throw blankets for us, so they're used as padding, warmth, or pillows too. What the airlines provide are much too small and thin for me.
